Frommer's Highly Recommended

Set on spacious and grassy grounds, this inn -- between Taos town and Taos Ski Valley -- offers excellent service in a comfortable atmosphere. The main house, built in 1971, has the modernity of that era's architecture. The rooms here are tastefully decorated with a Southwestern motif but don't have the ambience of inns such as the Little Tree or Adobe & Pines. Each room offers views of the mountains or mesas of Taos, and the bathrooms are modern and spacious. Three newer rooms (my favorites) are well designed, decorated in a tasteful Southwestern style, and each includes two queen-size beds, a minirefrigerator, gas fireplace, TV, DVD, and Jacuzzi tub. The focus here is on relaxation, outdoor activities, and tasty food; as well as an elaborate breakfast, guests enjoy afternoon appetizers such as carne adovada or potato leek soup. The innkeepers, both with years of hospitality experience, serve guests' needs well and share information about favorite activities in the area. A courtesy computer with Internet is available for guest use.
